Interpretation of Six Hot High-paying Jobs in Carbon Neutralization

6 carbon neutral and popular high-paying jobs

1. Carbon emission accounting jobs

Carbon emission accounting business is mainly to calculate the carbon emissions of regions, enterprises and products in a certain period of time and the verification business of relevant tripartite verification institutions. This work is also the most basic business in the carbon neutral industry. After the CDM project was stopped at the earliest, most of the carbon circle people in China were engaged in carbon emission verification. At present, there are more than 2, power companies in the national carbon market. These companies need to make their own financial arrangements, find out the total annual carbon emissions, and record and monitor the carbon emissions of enterprises on a daily basis.

in addition, the state also requires more than 8, key emission enterprises in eight major industries to submit annual greenhouse gas emission report lists, and at the same time requires third-party verification units to verify this. Therefore, these enterprises and carbon verification institutions have recruitment needs for carbon emission managers. It can be said that carbon emission accounting is the professional skill that needs to be mastered most in carbon neutral business. From the statistics of major recruitment platforms and government bidding websites, the related work of carbon emission accounting posts is the professional demand with the biggest market gap at present.

Therefore, only if you have working experience in carbon inventory and have received relevant professional education can you apply for this kind of job.

2. Carbon management consulting industry

Carbon management consulting is a wide-ranging business sector. As long as it provides carbon-related consulting services for enterprises or governments, it is considered as carbon management consulting or carbon neutral consulting. From the carbon neutral bidding platform, the business bidding information of carbon management consulting is very frequent, and enterprises, institutions and government departments constantly issue tenders. For example, Yunnan's energy security supports the peak carbon dioxide emissions Action Plan compilation project, which is the business scope of the carbon management consulting company.

companies engaged in this type of business have very high requirements on the professional ability and innovation of personnel. As can be seen from the bidding documents issued by the government and some central state-owned enterprises, most of the winning companies are local scientific research institutions or head enterprises engaged in this industry for many years, and some small companies have very few opportunities to enjoy related business. According to statistics, the market potential of carbon management consulting is expected to be around 1 billion yuan. At present, the market shows a spurt growth, but the business will reach its peak around 225, and then the business volume will decrease year by year.

3. Carbon finance industry

At present, China's carbon finance is in the early stage, carbon futures have not yet started, and the business that can be carried out is relatively simple. At present, the financial services for market operation include quota replacement, quota custody and quota financing, and carbon asset trading in the secondary market.

There are two main types of companies engaged in this field. One is the carbon asset management department or subsidiary established within the emission control enterprises. For example, Datang Carbon Assets Co., Ltd. was established by Datang Power to provide integrated technical services such as carbon asset development, carbon asset management and green services for many enterprises inside and outside the Datang system. Another type of company engaged in CDM business in the early days. In recent years, its main customers are mostly well-known brands with emission reduction needs at home and abroad. These companies are familiar with the international voluntary emission reduction market business and have experience in serving customers in the international market.

because these companies are familiar with the industrial processes and management systems of emission control enterprises, they mainly serve the regional companies of the group, and at the same time provide support in energy conservation and emission reduction, vigorously promote the contracted energy management business and conduct market-oriented operation.

Generally, carbon neutral service companies with carbon finance are not only engaged in this field, but also provide extended businesses such as carbon asset development and carbon consulting services. The business potential of the future carbon finance market is the volume of the whole carbon market. Studies have shown that the trading volume of spot and futures in the carbon market is expected to reach 2 trillion yuan, so the carbon finance industry will inevitably flood into more and more capital and talents.

4. Hot jobs in the development of environmental rights and interests projects

Environmental rights and interests projects are mainly divided into two categories, carbon assets and green certificates.

carbon assets, represented by CCER, can be used in domestic compulsory and voluntary emission reduction markets. Green Certificate There is no mandatory green certificate market because there is no mandatory RPS system in China. However, more and more domestic and foreign enterprises will pay more attention to clean energy after announcing their carbon-neutral goals, which has also generated market growth points for green certificates. There are many companies engaged in the development of environmental rights and interests projects in the market, and companies basically related to carbon neutral services have this business section.

this year, there are constant calls for the resumption of CCER, and the demand for CCER will further increase after other industries in the national carbon market are gradually included in the future. There are two kinds of job requirements for "environmental rights and interests project development", one is professional talents with development experience, and the other is more market-oriented talents. Only with good business development ability can more commercial projects be signed back.
